What is the best way to get rid of used vegetable oil?

Since I recycle I don't want to take a milk jug full of vegetable oil and throw it away so what's the best way to get rid of it, is there another way?What is the best way to get rid of used vegetable oil?
this is a tough one because when you store the used oil, it goes rancid very quickly and cannot be used for biodiesel





as it is vegetable oil, you can mix it in with composting material, but you have to be careful with rodents, so this is not best in a bin....


I usually dig holes in between rows of plants and spread the amount outWhat is the best way to get rid of used vegetable oil?
Try to find a place that collects it for use as bio-diesel. There are diesel vehicles that use the recycled oil instead of regular diesel. Many fast food places that use lots of oil donate the oil to persons who have these diesel vehicles. Perhaps the recycling center would know where an oil collection point is, or you could look at the restaurants. Many of the fast food places near my home have oil collection containers. Maybe an online search for bio-diesel might help. Good luck.
There are companies that collect waste oil and grease from restaurants for recycling. They may accept your wastes. I personally just collect my waste oil and grease into used jars and throw it in with the trash, but I have never really liked doing this and would recycle if it were easy.
